Stink Tube (Blow-by)

[johnpugh]

OK, I know the purpose of the crankcase blow-by tube on the passenger front of the engine.

Question: Why did they make it so short? All it does is dump oil vapor/film all over the wires and lower part of the engine. I have searched here and found that some have extended the tube by using a short heater hose and securing it onto the skid plate.

Is there another solution? Doesn't the Cummins have a bottle that is used for the same purpose? Has anyone come up with something better for the DMAX?

You got the current fix.....

Once Cali-liberal finds out that every 5000 miles a eye dropper of oil or a wisp of oil vapor is reaching the ozone,they'll shove that "STINK" pipe some where..Not where I would suggest,I'm sure,putting the "pipe" back into the "stink"....Hey Socal call the enviro"mental"ist....LOL....Tell them you have an idea....

MAC :eek:
